I didn’t know if there would be time to create anything for the upcoming holidays. THAT is why in a previous writing, I chose to share the art work and holiday designs of others.

Taking time to reflect on holidays gone by, and then “putting to paper” a snap-shot from my memories didn’t take as long as I expected! Even with my right arm strapped to my side!

As you know, I am a firm believer in keeping in touch with people, even if it’s a simple post card. Until you’ve been completely alone during the season of festivities, you do not realize how a simple post card can brighten someones day. Yep, I continue to promote the hand written notes…

I’m glad to have been able to concentrate on at least one piece, and have it available for this holiday season. I put this piece on a mug, in memory of the “special” tableware my Grandmother reserved only for the holidays. It’s my hope, whoever invests in these mugs, will share in holiday memories for years to come!

Though I am waiting for approval for the USPS stamp, featuring this “Holiday Berries”, they HAVE allowed me to go forward with this one…
